When are you 'done' with a game?

Do you finish all your games? Or do you play a game until you're bored with it? Or, perhaps, don't you play most of your games whatsoever?
I really don't know when I'm 'done' with a game. Love to hear your two cents.

In the past I was more of a completionist, but with STEAM SALES my catalogue has grown so much I need to force myself to not do EVERYTHING in a game or I have no time for other games.

I've taken to NOT finishing many games. Fallout 4 was great to start but then I got bored.

Some games have no replayability or hidden things to find so when you're done that's it.

I still haven't finished SKYRIM but for some reason I can't grasp myself I've started it several times. (I enjoyed it and still play it but I ran into "problems" like being overpowered with Stealth so it got boring as I could fire an arrow, hide, fire another etc even for enemies that should thump me...

So this playthrough I'm avoiding Stealth skills)

*I got stuck on Dragon...

*I got stuck on Dragon Age Origins because I left it for years then the ending was hard (so many enemies) and I just couldn't commit to the retrys, planning etc to get through that yet I wanted to check it off my list before starting Dragon Age Inquisition.

So I got the cheat for "god" mode and just finished the darn thing (though turns out I also have DLC mini-stories. sigh).

**I'm going to now start "Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice" as it looks to be interesting and relatively short. At this point I want shorter, quality games.

I really feel you, I got so many games to get through on Steam. Unfortunantly, I also have a big catalogue on my Xbox 360.... Not sure if I should play those.
A funny problem; having too many games.
By the way, Hellblade looks so great! And I do agree with you with liking shorter game experiences more.

I'm done when I reach 100% of a game when I get the time and explore every possibility and yeah.. in last case when I get bored to say the least, I also go for the achievements as well some games feels rewarding to accomplish all Achieves. But I only pick those that I like of course, otherwise I wouldn't bother. :)
